Ghost in the Mist Lyrics
Will not get out of my face
Locked here I cannot escape
It’s my life
What the hell is going on
Cause everything feels like it’s fading
Everyday seems like it was
the day before and I can’t take it.
I just want to erase the things I hate
and all the faces I see.
Right
Right in my face again and again.
All I’ve got for this is nothing but hate.
Right in my face
Feeding my rage
All I’ve got for this nothing but hate.
I’m a ghost in the mist. (it’s my life)
My life slips away
I wander unseen. (compromise)
I don’t make any sound.
I’m lost in the mist. (going blind)
No one showed me the way.
Locked in by my tears. (paralyzed)
With my knees on the ground.
Everyday it feels like is so predictable and I can’t change it.
I just want to break these habits take control of this confusion.
Right.
Right in my face again and again.
All I’ve got for this is nothing but hate.
Right in my face.
Feeding my rage.
All I’ve got for this nothing but hate
I’m a ghost in the mist. (it’s my life)
My life slips away.
I wander unseen. (compromise)
I don’t make any sound.
I’m lost in the mist. (going blind)
No one showed me the way.
Locked in by my tears. (paralyzed)
With my knees on the ground
I’m a ghost in the mist.
My life slips away
Will not get out of my face.
Locked here I cannot escape.
Can’t get you out of my face.
What can I do now?
Locked here I cannot escape.
What have you done now?
I will not forgive you
I’m a ghost in the mist (it’s my life)
My life slips away.
I wander unseen (compromise)
I don’t make any sound
I’m lost in the mist (going blind)
No one showed me the way
Locked in by my tears (paralyzed)
With my knees on the ground
I’m a ghost in the mist.
My life slips away
Can’t get it out of me
So what have you down now?
Locked here I cannot escape
What have you done now?
Will not forgive what you said.
What have you done now?
Locked here I cannot escape.
What have you done now?
I will not forgive you
Locked here I cannot escape
It’s my life
Cause everything feels like it’s fading
Everyday seems like it was
the day before and I can’t take it.
I just want to erase the things I hate
and all the faces I see.
Right in my face again and again.
All I’ve got for this is nothing but hate.
Right in my face
Feeding my rage
All I’ve got for this nothing but hate.
My life slips away
I wander unseen. (compromise)
I don’t make any sound.
I’m lost in the mist. (going blind)
No one showed me the way.
Locked in by my tears. (paralyzed)
With my knees on the ground.
I just want to break these habits take control of this confusion.
Right in my face again and again.
All I’ve got for this is nothing but hate.
Right in my face.
Feeding my rage.
All I’ve got for this nothing but hate
My life slips away.
I wander unseen. (compromise)
I don’t make any sound.
I’m lost in the mist. (going blind)
No one showed me the way.
Locked in by my tears. (paralyzed)
With my knees on the ground
My life slips away
Locked here I cannot escape.
Can’t get you out of my face.
What can I do now?
Locked here I cannot escape.
What have you done now?
I will not forgive you
My life slips away.
I wander unseen (compromise)
I don’t make any sound
I’m lost in the mist (going blind)
No one showed me the way
Locked in by my tears (paralyzed)
With my knees on the ground
My life slips away
So what have you down now?
Locked here I cannot escape
What have you done now?
Will not forgive what you said.
What have you done now?
Locked here I cannot escape.
What have you done now?
I will not forgive you

This song seems to be pretty straight forward from the beginning, "What the hell is going on? Cause everything feels like it’s fading". I feel like it's a phase a lot of us go through- depression and feeling lost. But with Andi's lines, it makes it seem like chronic (long-lasting/severe) depression, and the anger/frustration of being completely stuck with life fading away.
"No one showed me the way"
That line is the most painful to listen to in my opinion. Cristina is basically saying no one ever attempted to help her to a point where she could be okay. Maybe family or friends let this person down, or tried to help but couldn't because of the stigma surrounding mental health.
Very bleak song.
